" PALM, DEC. 23.—Important news from Portugal has been received at Paris by different channels. We have received some from our private correspondent. The Mo. niteur of this morning contains a telegraphic despatch, and. the London papers, vhieh we have received by ex press, have Lisbon papers to the 9th December. (The Quotidienne here quotes the article from Madrid, 18th De ceinber published in the Moniteur of Saturday.) "'Thais we see that the pretended defeat of the Royalists in Alentejo is announced in so vague a manner, that we 'nay be permitted to doubt it. We readily believe that those ii,tiyalists, who bad penetrated into that province by Villa.Vicaosa, were under the command of Brigadier Ma gessi, where, they were at the date of the news ; quoted jn the Mriniteur tins may be easily conceived, because, an the 34 December, they had crossed the Tagus at Abrantes. " Akihis river divides Alentejo from Portuguese Estre madura, it is evident that the corps commanded by Ma gessi had taken, at this latter date, a direction which in dicated the intention of going to join the division which was advancing by the province of Tanis-os:Montes. " We had indicated this movement when we gave an ii.ccount of the affair at Abrantes. Thus the Moniteur., not withstanding the obscurity of its bulletin, confirms what we have already said in our number of the 19th Dee. " On the same day we intimated that the Marquis of Chavea t fearing to be stopped by the resistance which the city of Oporto might make, had probably resolved to cross the Douro at another point, in order to arrive the sooner at COitnbra. " Our conjectures are confirmed by the following letter; which we have just received:— sThe Portuguese Royalists who entered the pro vinces of Minim and Douro, instead of continuing their March to, Oporto, suddenly turned aside to proceed to Vilna, a fortified city near the sea, before which they ar rived on the ifth . of December. It is said that they belie not, succeeded in this point. The garrison of the place made no Sally, :}Jut not having made any deMonstration favourable to. the Royalists, the latter again took the road to Opoito then learning that that city was preparing to make resistance, and that the liberal Spanish legion had arrived thews from Lisbon, they mule a motion to the left, went to pass the Douro at another point, and marched rapidly toWftrds Coimbra. This city, which was always animated by the most enthusiastic attachment to Royalty,. had made no preparations for defence, and the Marquis of t 'haves was to enter it on the 15th or ltith,' (Prom tbtalilote of Sunday.)

TIATA.VIA. A'file of Batavian Papers, from the sth of July last to the 6th of September, has been received. It appears from the general accounts, and the official dispatches contained in them, that the favourable statements given in the Dutch Papers have been much - exaggerated. The. plan adopted by the rebels to harass the Dutch troop') has in .most stances been.successful, and their superiority in numbers has in-most initances enabled them to give battle to the Dutch-troops, and to defeat them. Indeed, according to private letters which have reached us with•these papers, the Dutch have been repeatedly beaten by the rebel chiefs and great apprehension was entertained that they would make .further progress before the ,reinforcements expected from Holland could arrive. In the month of July last, the two guardians of the Sultan were taken prisoners by the rebelS, and the escort cut to pieces. A.' paper of the 16th of August, contains a dispatch from General Von Geen, to the Lieutenant-Governor-General, dated July 29, i n which he details the movements of. the 27th and 28th in the neighbourhood of Kendall), where he suddenly found himself surrounded and attacked on all quarters during the night. - the following morning the rebels had totally diSappeared, hut Gen. Van Geen, nevertheless thought it ; prudent to retreat. The same Paper contains other reports froth. this General, from which it would appear . that his troops had been constantly. harrassed in unavailing at= tempts to bring the rebels to a general engagement. There .is'also. a report from Major Le. Bron de. Vexela; dated Kadja Kusumo, in which he states that he had been obli ged to commence his retreat, having expended all his am munition. In the Paper of . the 30th August, there is an account of a considerable advantage- gained •by the rebels under. Depo, Negoro, near -the Desna Kambang;,. the Dutch had on this occasion to cut their way through- the enemy, after, having been, abandoned by their allies, the troops of Mangko Negoro. The General, in his dispatch, says, " We have to mourn, on this fatal day,- the loss of several _brave officers and men, and that there have fallen into the hands of the enemy two mortars, a quantity of ammunition, nine artillery horses, all the harness for the fore-horses, and besides the muskets of the slain, many others; for several of Mangko N egoro ' s t roo p s have re turned to our camp naked and disarmed.!' At the date of the 'latest accounts, Depo Negoro was near. Bedoyo, and the garrison of Camping had retired to Djojo, not being strong enough to defend the place. The number of the troops being much reduced by the repeated actions with, this rebels, much of the military service has fallen upon the merchants of Batavia, who are anxiously imploring assist ance from the mother country. • ANECDOTE OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION. LAST MOMENTS OF THE PRINCESS LAMBALLE. The butchery of the prisons was now commenced. The Duke de Penthievre set every engine in operation to save his beloved daughter-in-law. He sent for Manuel, who was then Procureur of Paris. The Duke declared that half his fortune should be Manuel's, if he could but save the Princess Lambelle, and the ladies who were in the same prison with her, from the general massacre. Manuel pro mised the Duke that he would instantly set about removing them all from the reach of the blood-limiters. * The massacre bad begun at day-break (Sept. I.) The fiends had been some hoUrs busy in the work of death. The piercing shrieks of the dying victims brought the Princess and her remaining companion upon their knees in fervent prayer for the souls of the departed. The mes sengers of the tribunal now - appeared. The Princess was compelled to attend the summons. She went, accompa nied by her faithful female attendant. , 'A glance• at the seed of blood, of which she caught a glimpse upon her way to the court, had nearly shocked her even to sudden death. Would it had. She staggered, but was sustained by her compeniOn: Her courage triumphed. She appeared before the gore-stained tri bune. • After some questions of mere form' her Highness was commanded to swear to be faithful to the new Order of Government, and to bate the King, the Queen, and, royalty. " To the first," . replied her Highness, " I willingly -submit. To the second, how can I recede ?. There. is nothing of which I van accuse the Royal Family. To hate them is against my nature. They are my sovereigns . —they are my friends and relations. I have served them for many years, and never have I found reason for the slightest. complaint." The Princess could no longer articulate. She fell into the arms of her attendant. 'The fatal signal was pronounced. Site recovered, and crossing the.eourt of the prison, which was bathed with the blood of mutilated victims, involun tarily exclaimed- 7 " Gracious heaven 1 what a sight is this!" and fell into, a fit. Nearest to her in.the mob stood a mulatto, whom she had caused to be baptized, educated, and maintained ; but whom, from ill conduct, she bad latterly excluded from her presence. This miscreant struck at her with his hal bert. The blow removed her cap. Her luxuriant hair— as if to hide her angelierbeauty from the sight of her mur derers, pressing tiger-like around to pollute that form, the virtues of which equalled its physical perfection—her luxu riant hair fell around and veiled her a moment from view. An individual, to whom I was nearly allied, seeing the miscreants somewhat staggered, sprung forward to the rescue; but ,the mulatto wounded him., The Princess was lost to all feeling from the moment the monster first struck at her. But the demons would not quit their prey. She expired gashed with wounds: Scarcely was the breath out of her body when the mur derers cut off her head. One party of them fixed it, like that of the vilest traitor, on an immense pole, and bore it in triumph all over Paris; while another division of the outrageous cannibals, were occupied in tearing her clothes piece -meal from her mangled corpse. The bead was then taken through the streets. By a singular circumstance it became the cause of immediate death to one who had been in my employ. The strange event happened as follows: My English man g aervant, and the young girl who had accompanied me from France to Italy, were both taken very ill, from the violent heat we had suffered from travel ling night and day in the month of Aligust, 1792. I was therefore obliged to send them both back for the benefit of their native air. They reached Paris on the very day of the massacre. The first thing the girl saw, on alighting from the diligence, was the bead of the well-known bene factress of her mistress. The fellow who was bearing it thrust it so near theiefitees, that - thy-long hair of the vie. tim entangled itself on the button of my man servant's coat, who took a knife and cut the locks to disentangle himself from the head. On his return to Italy, he gave me the hair which he thus cut off. I have kept it by :frie ever since. The poo r girl, at sight of the horrid spectacle, give but a shriek, and died in six hours after she reached the inn. The horrid spectacle was next exhibited within the Palais Royal. Madame Billions, the avowed mistress of its royal occupier, was,dining with biM. They both started up, and ran to the Window. On discovering the cause of the tumult, Madame But Tons fainted. The Duke of Or leans; it is 'said, remarked -7." Oh, it is Lemballe's head. I know it by th e long hair." Madame Burons reviving, exclaimed---" Heaven knowahow soon mine may be struck off and paraded in the same munner Send it out of sight --lend it out of the palace, or I shall expire l"—Mensoirs 4 . the Princess, Lambalk.

Mrs. Webb, the predecessor of Mre. Davenport at co vent-garden Theatre, was for a long time a favourite actress at Norwich, when Miss Child; she afterwards married Mr. Webb. The city of Norwich, like the city of Lon, den, has its Bridewell precinct, in which several of the performers lodged, on account of the nearness of the situa tion to the theatre. At that time a sprightly actor, of the name of IYEath, who played a season or two in town, re sided on the sam e fl oor of th e h ouse i n w hi c h Miss Child lodged, the doors of their apartments being opposite each other, At this time a theatrical friend from Bath called upon that respectable man end actor, Mr. Brunton, sen i or , who afterwards, b ecam e the lessee and manager of the theatre, and inquired how Matilda was, meaning Mrs. Aercay, a great favourite of the company in general, whose merits as a woman are honourably recorded on her tombstone in the church-yard of St. Paul's Covent-garden, to which Mr, B. replied, " For Heaven's sake, my dear friend, do not ask me.` " Not ask you I I hope nothing serious, has happened to the amiable creature ?" " Jtidge. yourself," rejoined Mr. 8., with a sigh, " when I unsure you that poor 'dear.Matilda is at thi s mom ent w ith Chi/V , at Death's da op in .Prideloell i" Mr, B, i mme diat e l y cork ducted his friet:d to, the precinet, where they :found Mrs,.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY' EVENING, DEC. Q 7, .1826.. The Paris Papers of Sunday, and the 'Etoile' dated Monday morning, reached us last night. Their con tents are of high interest, as furnishing us with news from Lisbon to the 13th inst., being three days later than our direct communications from that city. The general aspect of this intelligence is gloomy. Rebel ! lion exists everywhere, and the country is threatened, as the Bishop' of ALGARVE observed in the Chamber of Peers, on the 9th, “by open revolt, by foreign war, and by the connivance of some of the public func tionaries with the rebels." At the date of these advices Oporto, however, had not fallen. On the contrary, it would seem that the Marquis de CRAVES had aban doned his intention of immediately attacking that place.. According .to private letters, it would appear that instead of continuing his march to Oporto lie had Suddenly turned aside; to proceed to Viana, a fortified city near the SCA, before which he arrived on the 9th DeceMber, but made no attempt upon it,. the garrison not having made any demonstration favorable to the Royalists, who then again took the road to Oporto. Learning, however, that resistance would be made, they suddenly turned to the left, crossed the Douro at another point, and marched on Coimbra, which city the Marquis was to enter on the 15th or - 16th. From these facts, it would appear that the plan of the MA RQUIs is rather.to spread.the revolt, than to risk an attack on any place, which by its vigorous resistance might give him a check ; but it is • also evident, that the Constitutional Generals in these districts have no means to pursue offensive 'operation's' against him : indeed; the official reports published' in the postscript of the Etoile, from the Minister at War at Lisbon, admit that the whole population of Tras:•oa-Montes were armed as guerillas, which' had impeded the-mo tions of General - MBLLo. That Oflieeswand • General CL AUM NO had taken up a position - on . the Taimegat, by which the province of Minho was covered—but the communications from them did not come down to it later date than the Bth inst. These accounts from Lisbon place' beyond doubt the fact of Spanish troops forming part of the rebel force. General Alieum positively states that "many Spanish troops accompany th e re b e l s , and that the Officers:who were made prisoners at Braganca had been conducted. into Sp a in by Sp an i s h L an cers, bound two and two." If this c i rcums t anc e be4iilly confirmed; the these events Pr.peara:e.aglivtiatthinSg the kingdom of pain is at once settled. • uwhileestion ' Por tugal from one end to the other, we find the Cham ber of Peers 'at Lisbon on the 11th debating "a ques ,tiOn of Police, and wh a t their own costume sh a ll b e I 'No patriot- ardour fireo tba breasts of these noble Senators, with whom the embroidery on a blue habit seems to . possess more interest than the fate of that Constitution w hi c h NA given them the privilegiof dis ,cussing"questions involving the dearest rights of man.. The intense interest of news from the Peninsula throws into the back ground intelligence from every other quarter ; but in faCt these papers contain nothing important from any'other part of the world. Extracts at length will be found in a preceding column. The Aligemeine Zeitung of the 20th inst. has been received this morniug, ft 00 of poli tical interest, but has some observations on the war in Portual7 and the little variation Produced on the Fo reign Funds, by the excitement of political ovonti compared to the great fluctuations occasioned by the Austrian invasion of Naples. It also contains some comments upon the reasonable probability that Eng land would prefer peace to war, in 9rdeso reduce her national debt, and quiet the disturbances IrelsUd All this may be very true, but England is not the less prepared to go to war, when either her honour or her duty demand it, although the payment of her debt may he prolonged, and the tranquillity of Ireland hazarded._: England just in her policy, shall keel: : : her majestic' course like one of her own proud ships'. over the murmering waves, and conscious .of her might, silence the Voice of sedition in the command ing glory of her-triumphant career. FRANKFORT, DEC. 15. According to private accounts from Vienna, it is be lieved here that in the approaching settlement for the half year the extra dividend for the Bank will amount to rtl florins, and, besides this, 6 florins per share will be laid bl. for the Revenue funds. In the course of this week v er y little has been done in Foreign Bills. Our wool trade has lately been rather more brisk. Se' veral parcels are said to have been sold for exportation to France ,and the Netherlands; but, with respect to the prices, the settlements are too uncertain to found any ge neral conclusion from them. A singular circumstance occurred here lately. A Jai who had embraced Christianity was interred in the Jewish burying-ground. It appeared, several days after his burial, from an exarriination of his papers, that he had been h a p -. tiled at-Turin Several yea before, hut had concealed his conversion, and, even in his last illness, had been contented with the attendance of his former brethren, so alit theb, not suspecting his a p os t ac y from their re li gion, treate d him after his death as one of their community. • Though the events that ate passing in Portugal seem te..4 afford a favourable opportunity for stock-jobbing, it cannot em fa o i um l s t p : llr b ad e vthe o m b e s ufl er cuh v e e td d uia , mti t ion ha nsish t t e h d e w e i x til ci i t l a l b t i h li e t s y s Years ago.
